This study introduces a framework to help experts assess probability distributions for complex decision models, reducing cognitive biases and improving decision quality in healthcare. Preliminary results show practical promise for patient management.

Area of Science:

  • Decision analysis
  • Health informatics
  • Biostatistics

Background:

  • Decision analytic models rely on probability distributions, which are challenging to assess for complex, dynamic systems.
  • Expert judgment in probability assessment can be prone to cognitive biases, impacting model accuracy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present an integrated framework for eliciting probability distributions from domain experts for dynamic decision models.
  • To minimize cognitive biases in expert probability assessments and enhance decision-making quality.

Main Methods:

  • Development of an integrated framework to guide experts in probability elicitation.
  • Implementation of a prototype system.
  • Evaluation through a case study in colorectal cancer patient follow-up management.

Main Results:

  • Preliminary results indicate the framework's practical utility.
  • The case study demonstrated the framework's potential in a real-world clinical scenario.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed framework shows promise for improving the assessment of probability distributions in dynamic decision models.
  • It offers a method to mitigate cognitive biases, leading to better-informed decisions in healthcare management.
